What We Do

Database Development
We build custom databases, ranging in style and functionality, for research-driven projects. Working closely with our project partners we ensure our work aligns with their goals and overall vision.

Data Communication via Design
Our team carries out small-scale graphic design projects for social media visuals, Data Lab brand management, website user interface designs, or inclusion in the Data Lab’s yearly zine.

Data Visualization and Mapping
We create data visualizations to gain insights into our databases and interpret trends. These visuals are often integrated into interactive dashboards.

Digital Archiving
Our team preserves and organizes research materials for long-term access and reuse. Helping our project partners securely store their work and making it discoverable for future analysis and collaboration.

Web Development
Custom web developments showcase project research in an accessible and engaging digital experience, bringing projects online to reflect the style, mission, and audience of each project.

Data Entry and Cleaning
To prepare data for analysis and ensure the accuracy and consistency of our work, we perform formatting corrections, remove duplicates, and verify data to produce high-quality results.
